Diodes - Rectifiers - Single

GP10A-E3/54 is a single-phase, glass-passivated junction, rectifier diode, with high surge capacity and low reverse current. It has extremely low forward voltage drop and surge capability, due to the high temperature, glass-passivated junction.

Application Field

GP10A-E3/54 is essential for power supplies, output rectification, and DC lighting applications where low cost and high efficiency are desired. Its robust construction makes it ideal for both commercial and industrial applications, as a reliable and cost-effective rectifier.

Working Principles

GP10A-E3/54 works by using the rectifying property of diodes. A diode is a two-electrode device that allows current flow through the device in one direction only. This property of diodes makes them essential building blocks for rectifier circuits that convert AC power to DC power. The GP10A-E3/54 is a single-phase glass-passivated junction rectifier that is optimized for low forward voltage drop and high surge capability. The device is designed for use in power supplies, output rectification, and DC lighting applications.

When the diode is forward biased, current starts to flow from the anode side to the cathode side, and continues to increase until the voltage drop across the diode is equal to the applied voltage. At this point, the diode is said to be in "saturation." This is the ideal operating point for a rectifier circuit, as it allows the most current to flow through the rectifier with the minimum voltage drop.

When the diode is reverse biased, the voltage drop across the diode is limited to a predetermined value, typically 0.7V. This is known as the “reverse break down” voltage. In this state, very little current is allowed to flow through the diode, which prevents large currents from flowing in the opposite direction.

GP10A-E3/54 is constructed from high temperature, glass-passivated junction which gives the device its exceptionally low forward voltage drop and its high surge capability. The device also has exceptionally low reverse leakage current and is optimized for high efficiency operation.
